    Great recap pod
    Just started my 5th Sopranos rewatch and wanted a companion pod for episode recaps. These guys are phenomenal. Super witty, smart and funny analysis. Keep up the great work and best of success on whatever you do next! (Please recap Mad Men)

    Hey, I let nobody wag their finger in front of me...
    Strong, clear, well-spoken. Fabulous storytelling and analysis of each scene. I listen in the car & many times in the gym. Ok, I truly listen a lot. Superior quality podcast. (PS. No South Jersey talk!) (PPS. Why are some eps gone? Ack!)

    Love this
    I’ve recently started watching the sopranos (I’ve been binge watching and im almost done with it… oops). I love the commentary from both Hannibal and Gavin, both are so funny but also very knowledgeable and just all around entertaining. I’ve now been binging this pod at work so I can finally catch up so I can listen to this after each episode. It also helps give me in-site on some things I may not have picked up on initially. I love it, I hope both Gavin and Hannibal are doing well since completing the podcast. <3 great work <3

    Meadow detest
    I love this podcast because one of the host shares my disdain and detest for Meadow. She is the worst😆
  • RileyO.
    Great companion piece!
    Just finished watching the Sopranos for the first time and I loved having this podcast as a companion piece to deep dive into each episode. Great commentary, insight, and humor. Nice job, fellas!

    Great Show Analysis
    I’m rewatching the Sopranos and decided to listen to the podcast at the same time. The show analysis is so good. These guys are very intelligent and knowledgeable. They highlight aspects of the show I would have never thought of as important on my own. They’re also adorably dorky. I adjusted my rating from 5 to 3 stars. Still making my way through the podcast but I realized that these guys are just a little too comfortable with racist jokes, fat shaming, and the mocking of religion. I’m sure they’re not actually prejudice, but they are definitely insensitive toward these subjects.

    Please do Succession!
    Love this podcast so much!! Can you please do one on Succession?? I have yet to find one that is even as remotely good as “The Sopranos Show”.
  • StevenA21
    Love this show!!
    This podcast is the best… stinks that they covered all the episodes. I know they’re “THE SOPRANOS SHOW”, but I would love to hear them discuss other shows on HBO. Maybe “Succession”??
  • villain2
    Solid
    I tried several other podcasts about the Sopranos and this is by far the best. They do a great job of not spoiling future events and have a nice recap/discussion of each episode.
  • plusmoore
    Only Sopranos Pod You Need
    Insightful, spoiler free reviews of each episode. The hosts do a great job at discussing themes, cinematic choices, and meaningful trivia.
  • pwj7050
    Boring!
    Boring! Enough said.
  • Andrea-E90
    Exactly what I was looking for
    I came here to write a good review, but I just heard one of the hosts admit they didn’t like Hamilton and now I don’t know if I can trust their judgment!! 😂 I’m kidding. As a first time watcher of The Sopranos, I wanted a podcast without spoilers and this is perfect. Great banter between the hosts combined thoughtful analysis of the show. I’m very glad I found this podcast and am looking forward to hearing their thoughts as the next five seasons unfolds.

    No Spoilers
    Making my way through the Sopranos for the first time and was looking for a companion podcast. Tried many different ones during season 1 and ultimately kept coming back here. Every other watch along Pod I tried contained spoilers, big or small, in some form of another. Gavin and Hannibal are incredibly careful and cognizant about breaking down each episode fully and giving nothing away. Great show guys thank you!
  • Uobbuig
    Very Good
    This show is insightful and interesting; the hosts are very well informed about the show. My only quibble is that they decline to research references that predate them and speculate instead. And they’re a little ageist. Still, I give it five stars and it’s enhancing my rewatch.
  • BoroBecky
    A Must
    This is by far my favorite podcast & a MUST for any true Sopranos fan. I’m enjoying the current celebrity podcasts by actors from the show but for the true “deep dive” experience, Gavin & Hannibal are the real stars.
  • Mattie2556
    Hannibal and Gavin are awesome
    So insightful and funny. The banter between the two is so entertaining. Smart, witty and don’t take themselves too seriously. I listen after every episode I watch, makes it even more enjoyable. Thanks guys!
  • Zorlio
    Great great great.
    Great chemistry between the hosts. I love that they don’t give future spoilers when discussing the episodes. I think these guys should do a similar podcast of other shows they’ve watched. Would LOVE to listen. Maybe they can do Lost.
  • kenthenoble
    Cheers to Hannibal and Gavin
    Excellent podcast fellas. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. I didn’t realize you guys started back in 2019 until I was well into it. There were several other shows going as you know and they are far from the end. I appreciate I was able to binge watch and then dissect each scene immediately afterward. You guys are a great team. Very entertaining. I hope you made a few dollars in the mean time you deserve it. Sincerely, Ken age 61 from Lynbrook ny.

    Fantastic companion podcast
    I am watching the Sopranos for the first time and have previewed all of the popular Soprano podcast that are available. This one is the best by far. They provide an excellent episode recap, and have a great insight on the happenings of the episode. Most importantly, for someone watching for the first time they make a concerted effort not to give away any spoilers. I can’t recommend this podcast enough.
  • mathandmafia
    Good Company
    Started watching The Sopranos (for the first time) when we went into quarantine in 2020. One episode per day after remote teaching followed by the podcast. Great recap. I regret that I only have the series finale left to watch.
  • Lights Out Leidigh
    Must listen if you’re watching the Sopranos
    This is far and away the best sopranos podcast out. They recap each episode without spoilers. Humor, insight, and analysis while providing cinematic purspective I wouldn’t have noticed on my own
  • Dan sattre
    Solid
    Good podcast. You can tell these two are close friends, and their conversations about the show are fun and entertaining. The strengths of this podcast are more about their funny banter and conversation than picking up on major themes, which they miss at times. My biggest complaint is that these guys like to use (and misuse) the word “literally” an insufferable amount of times. Literally. C’mon guys. You’re better than that.
  • lili_me
    Awesome!
    Love this podcast! It’s definitely intelligent and entertaining, let’s me in on little things I wouldn’t have noticed. They discuss everything in depth, and it’s got good analysis but they don’t leave out the humor. I wish they would do one for The Wire!!
  • shelby911
    AMAZING
    I listened to this whole thing non stop in about a week and a half. Totally amazing analysis of the show we all know and love. Gives insight into aspects of the show I didn’t even notice. Very funny and entertaining as well. I will be rewatching the series with fresh eyes!
  • I before E
    My Favorite Podcast of All Time
    Impressed and so grateful for this podcast, I wished I’d found it earlier! Great breakdown of each episode of the best show of all time with an appreciation for the show’s inimitable black humor! Thank you for hours and hours of insight and laughter. What will you guys do next? Can I suggest AHS?
  • Estone2112
    Excellent
    This is a great podcast for Sopranos fans. The hosts are insightful, fair, interesting and break the episodes down swiftly and smoothly. They offer facts and trivia and honest reviews. Highly recommended.
  • ElanaLeanna
    Must listen
    I recently rewatched The Sopranos with my daughter. After every episode, I listened to the podcast. It was so interesting. Aside from the fact that they drove me crazy with their pronunciation of the word 'Soprano', they were very astute at breaking down each episode. They shared lots of trivia and I especially enjoyed the interview with Silvio's wife. Very easy listen, and what I now consider an essential companion to the show.
  • LMessina86
    Great Character Analysis
    These guys do a nice job of analyzing the various personalities of the show and their intrinsic value. They’ll also throw in some decent humor towards the end of episode with their “favorite line” segment.
  • LauraRena101
    First watch - looked forward to the TSS as much as the next Sopranos episode!
    As someone watching for the first time, I wanted to be able to process what I was hearing without spoilers outside of speaking with my fiancé who has done several rewatches and is a super fan. The Sopranos Show was great for that! I was very sensitive to being spoiled and I would say they did a good job with the conversation between the two hosts- just skip the interviews with outside people if you are very sensitive to spoilers and you’re set. I looked forward to listening to The Sopranos Show just as much as I looked forward to seeing the next episode of the show and when people say that the characters on The Sopranos seem like their old friends- Gavin and Hannibal seemed like my friends and I will miss hearing them every episode now that I’ve finished the show! They definitely helped me become a super fan of the show myself! Thank you two!
  • spd 84
    Stay focused
    The show was very good in the first season but slipped each season. The lack of focus is distracting and the goofy laughing is tough to listen to. Clean those up and the show improves significantly.

    JB
    When I stood next to Gandolfini on the elevator at 8 Penn, I was speechless. I always thought I would have said that I loved the way he popped that onion ring into his mouth in that last scene. But I now know that I should have thanked him for giving us this gift of rewatch able drama. The same must now be said to these two guys, who by their intelligence and humor, allow us to experience The Sopranos again and again in an altogether unique way. They have spoilt me, for I can now listen to no other podcasts...goodbye Slate, Crime Writers On, Sam Harris, 538, etc, Hello The Sopranos Show...all the time!
  • SoCalJB869
    Catching Up.
    I discovered this podcast on a drive to Arizona. At first I was skeptical a podcast about a show I loved? However these two fellows pull it off. It was so good I started over from Season 1 Episode 1. Shame on them, they caused many fights between my wife and I. She wondered why I would rewatch a show and listen to the podcast? Because these guys rock.
  • TAD1776
    Outstanding and entertaining podcast!
    I love podcasts and have been listening to them for years. The Sopranos Show podcast is one of the best I’ve ever heard. Gavin and Hannibal did such an outstanding job covering the show and they are really entertaining to listen to. At the time The Sopranos started airing originally my husband and I were newly married and did not have HBO. 20 years later we were looking for a new show to watch and decided to give it a try. We both became huge fans installing. I didn’t expect there to be a podcast for it but was pleasantly surprised there were. I was thrilled to find The Sopranos Show podcast because it was so good and spoiler free. I was able to watch an episode or two at a time and then listen to the show for insights and extend my enjoyment. Thank you gentlemen! I really appreciate the job you did on this.
  • adrum1000
    Great pod!!
    Intelligent analysis and the guys have a fun and engaging rapport.
  • mollie the ginger
    AMAZING
    I love every episode of the Sopranos Show. Commentary and analysis are well-researched and entertaining.
  • Burt
    This has been a great show
    One of my favorites!! Been listening a couple years- really love it and hope if they do another pod it’s on Madmen I have tried listening to so many of them out there and they are trash. Thanks Guys!
  • fatherphilFanGurL
    A fun and seasoned perspective on the greatest show of all time
    Gavin and Hannibal offer thorough commentary and analysis not only on the content, but on the craft of the show. It’s clear they know a thing or two about filmmaking and various aspects of screenwriting and production, which is cool because I don’t! They also keep things fun and funny and give off the vibe of two thoughtful dudes who have known each other forever. As someone who also discovered the sopranos at age 12, a few years after it first aired, I relate to their perspective.
  • GQ1221
    Love the podcast.
    Super fan of the podcast and Sopranos. You guys did a great job with the show
  • yankee fannn <3333333
    Thanks for an epic run
    Tremendous job done by the guys!
  • hunterbrah27
    So I JUST finished my very first run.....
    WOW WHAT A RIDE!!! Can’t wait to hear you’re opinions on the finale. Have you guys thought about doing other shows? OZ is pretty crazy with lots of twists and turns. Anyways you guys are great. It’s been fun listening to you guys as I watched the series!
  • T3K84
    Less ADHD than NFZ, but also less interesting
    If you want to hear two guys dodge any sort of intelligent analysis but talk for long stretches about inconsequential continuity errors...this is the podcast for you.
  • Cherry Whisper
    Hands-Down Amazing Podcast
    I’m watching through The Sopranos for the first time, and I am telling you I am beyond grateful for this podcast. I look forward to listening to the relevant podcast episode pertaining to the Sopranos episode. There guys go in-depth episode-by-episode and do a FANTASTIC job of pointing out symbolism, filmography, and connections without revealing spoilers. If you love the Sopranos, this podcast is a MUST. It will change the nature of how you watch the show. YOU GUYS ROCK.
  • nomalezone
    Love these guys ❤️❤️❤️
    Hannibal and Gavin are hilarious. Their chemistry as friends makes the show a gem to experience. I had never watched The Sopranos until this year, and I’m listening to this podcast as I watch the series. Their analyses are always thoughtful and intriguing, and makes you appreciate all the hard work that was put in to make the Sopranos a timeless classic. Favorite podcast. Highly recommend! Ps, are either of you single? Asking for a friend. 😅

    20 years in the making
    I have just finished the series - 20 years too late. Thankfully I didn’t wait another 20 years to discover this podcast! Love these two guys!
  • mastakilladilazilla
    Great
    Cracks me up every time good analyzes the show so well
  • scottD125
    Serious mistakes
    These guys make such a serious mistake in just the first few minutes of the first episode that I see no reason to continue listening.
  • pmg2018
    Good Podcast
    This is a great podcast. Gavin and Hannibal have a great sense of humor and insight. This is a good companion to watching or rewatching The Sopranos!
  • Tony Uncle Johnny
    Outstanding gift to all Sopranos fans
    These guys knock it OUT of the Park. All these years later and I just can’t get enough!!
  • Wild Bill 0519
    Great podcast
    The Sopranos Show is a lighthearted, well produced, insightful look at one of the best television series ever. From cast and crew interviews to in depth analysis, hosts Gavin and Hannibal break down each episode down to the fine details. If you are looking for a companion podcast to The Sopranos, look no further, this is the podcast for you.
  • ryancohenmusic
    Best Sopranos Podcast with No Spoilers!
    Gavin and Hannibal have a very simplistic linear way of breaking down each episode perfectly. There’s nothing gimmicky about their podcast - just incredible analysis and special guests! I loved revisiting each episode and listening to the corresponding episode. Best part is they have NO SPOILERS for future episodes. Incredible. Thanks so much guys!
